In my latest video, I wanted to look at Montez Sweat, EDGE out of Mississippi State. Based on what I saw on film, I think he’s the edge defender the Redskins have sorely been missing. Since Preston Smith became a free agent, this was a great pick and he should start opposite of Ryan Kerrigan. I love his length and his instantaneous burst off the LOS. I think he has a high floor with his run contain abilities plus he can develop into a more consistent pass rusher.

Pro Comp: Danielle Hunter/Ziggy Ansah – Speed, power, length. I see him as a potential double digit sack guy. I think he should really study Ansah’s tape as he could benefit from perfecting the long-arm stab rip move and the long-arm stab bull-rush. Both will make him a lot more effective. Sweat needs a pass rush plan in place like these guys to maximize his abilities.
